The Ultimate Spring Gift Guide

How does the season influence our decisions when it comes to buying gifts?

Spring is in the air and summer is just around the corner and after a dreary winter and copious amounts of rain this year, we believe, and sales figures suggest, that gift givers and recipients are craving colour right now.

If this is relatable, look no further – Roxtons Spring Gift Guide offers something in every possible hue, sure to brighten someone’s day.

For those always on the go, whether that’s to the gym, camping or away for the weekend, Go Emu’s Dry Duffle Bag will ensure the recipient is ready for action this spring. In bright Royal Blue with a pop of contrasting colour, this is a gift for all ages and unisex too. 

Get summer ready and spoil them with the gift of an eye-catching throw. Crafted in Yorkshire, the Roxtons wool throws feel as good on the bed as you will cocooned in one around the table following a summer BBQ when the temperature drops.

The perfect pedestal for cakes and desserts but also canapes and cheese, the Blim cake stand is ideal for summer entertaining. An original gift for those who love to host friends and family. They will appreciate their culinary creations being kept fresh and protected whether dining indoors or outside.

To be really creative, why not bake a celebratory cake to pop inside for the ultimate birthday present or anniversary gift.

Whatever the occasion – anniversary, birthday or ‘welcome to your new home’ - the Duo Box of Champagne soaps by Savonneries Bruxelloises offers the chance to enjoy champagne not just in a glass but in the bath too! These luxury soaps are triple milled using traditional methods by Royal Warrant holders since 1926.

Speaking of champagne, get the celebration started by giving Cheer Moda’s electric Champagne Bottle opener. This elegant cork-popper ensures the bottle is opened safely and easily with just the press of a button.

Looking for a gift for the new homeowner? The Doing Good Throw is hand block printed in India and can be used over a bed, on the sofa or as a tablecloth or a picnic rug. Furthermore, you get two gifts in one as the pretty tote bag can be used independently.

The Bonnie frames by the same brand are made of glass and bronze and come in a rainbow of wonderful hues – the perfect spring gift!

A welcome lifestyle gift is a single or pair of beautiful, lacquered candlesticks. Bobbin shaped, amazingly glossy and in a palette of striking colours, this is surely a lovely ‘new home’ present.

Alternatively, a great idea if you need to post your new home gift, is the Sarany woven basket. These colourful creations are handmade in Cambodia and every one is a unique work of art.

Spring birthday presents for girl friends include Les Belles Vagabondes Silk Twilly Scarves. The perfect addition to the wardrobe, these 100% silk scarves are so chic and so French! Tie around the neck, in the hair or add to your handbag. Each one comes in it’s own little tin.

Similarly, the cotton scarves from Vismaya are just so bright and cheerful and are guaranteed to bring a smile to the birthday girl’s face!

Wedding anniversary gifts require special attention, especially if you consider the gift that represents a specific year of marriage. The second anniversary is cotton so maybe a Sorena Tote in a stunning colourway would tick the box. Alternatively, three years are leather - check out Loxwood’s luxurious Simone bag which simply oozes Parisian style. She will love you forever!

For him, consider a Secrid wallet. This modern take on a billfold wallet holds 6 cards, has RFID protection and is really rather cool. Celebrate 15 years of marriage with the gift of crystal and give him a touch of magic with a Gingko Crystal Ball Light.

Whatever the occasion, Roxtons has gift ideas aplenty this spring.
